As we have learned, the author already has a new, ruthless essay prepared regarding the metamorphoses and ultimate death of the US presidency. Before this text sees the light of day, we decided to dig into our archives and present our exclusive interview with AA Trump. This conversation was recorded in the wake of the author's previous, scandalous essay—"Evil Clowns in Office"—and represents the direct reaction of the main protagonist.
Interviewer: Mr. President, I am sorry that the author decided to portray you and your opponent in such a light. He calls your political struggle a "lame, disgusting farce". In my opinion, you are a figure of a completely different, historical magnitude, and this assessment is unfair.
AA Trump: (With a slight, cynical smile) The author is a naive romantic. He writes that the people are still looking for a worthy Hector or Achilles from an ancient Greek tragedy. Nonsense! He admitted it himself in his essay: we are not an anomaly of the system, but the ultimate mirror of society's rot. I am simply giving the people exactly what they want. And those elites who panicked after the debate—they truly are idiots devoid of any foresight. They actually believed their own daytime soap opera.
Interviewer: But the author directly accuses you. He says that you are a modern, comical reincarnation of Nero and Attila. He criticizes you by claiming that your election is the result of society's dark, hidden aspirations.
AA Trump: Both Nero and Attila had massive empires! The author thinks the people want a "Res Publica" where power emanates from rational masses. In reality, as he figured out himself, the moment the people got the power, their first instinct was to recreate a feudal blood-feud. My alternative and I offer them exactly that. We simply replaced royal banners with party colors. Does George think he is exposing something with this? No, he simply cannot come to terms with the fact that the people enjoy this dirty spectacle. I am the one managing this reality, while the author is simply afraid of his own mirror.
Interviewer: So, it turns out you agree with the author's conclusion that society has exactly the leaders it deserves, but you simply do not share his pathos?
AA Trump: Absolutely. The author is a man sitting in a comfortable grandstand, preaching morality to the players, while the people themselves are demanding blood in the arena. I give them blood, spectacle, and emotion. Let the author continue writing essays in his intellectual echo chamber. We, on the other hand, will keep the show going, because, as he himself said quoting Kant: "If the truth shall kill them, let them die".
